I have my doubts there'll ever be a 'faithful' adaptation of Dracula, any more than there's ever been a 'faithful' adaptation of Frankenstein. Both novels do not lend themselves readily to the type of cinematic treatment Hollywood demands in order to draw audiences, if filmed in a manner that's as close to the source material as all that. We may get a film that is closer to the spirit of the novel than some have been, as we have with Frankenstein, but a truly literalist screen treatment of the work? No way.
